The eKindy program provides another opportunity for families to access a free, comprehensive ‘at home’ approved kindergarten program for children in the year before Prep. Delivered by the Brisbane School of Distance Education, the program is designed to support children living in rural and remote areas, traveling or medically unable to attend a local early childhood service engage in quality kindergarten experiences and maximise their learning as they play, create, imagine and discover.
Activity days are offered each term in selected locations to provide a valuable opportunity for children to meet their eKindy teacher in person and learn face-to-face with their peers. For more information on the eKindy program, please contact (07) 3727 2860 or email ekindy@brisbanesde.eq.edu.au
